Refresh rate overclocking

I wan to overclock the refresh rate of my LG 9 WN600. I go to Nvidia control panel, change resolution, customise, create custom resolution, and set the refresh rate to 80HZ (default is 75), when I apply the custom resolution, the screen goes REALLY blurry and pixelated. I didn't think a 5hz refresh rate bump would change the resolution. I disabled freesync/G sync on both monitor and in software, and it is connected via displayport. I tried going up in increments of one, and the blurry effect happens from 77HZ+. anybody got any tips?

Anything too high for the control board to handle is gonna have issues. There's never a guarantee that your monitor is gonna run any higher than the rated speed.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

That just means your monitor isn't really capable of OCING past 76hz without issues. can't do much about it

b550 > x570

ok then, guess my monitor can't be overclocked or didn't win the silicon lottery. I am fine with 75 tbh, just wanted to see as there isn't the largest difference between 60 and 75HZ
